OpenWeather provides one of the most accessible and developer-friendly APIs for real-time weather data, forecasts, air pollution, and even historical weather information.

In our own project (OS Yamato), we use it to drive poetic weather interactions — matching user messages to live weather conditions. OpenWeather supports multiple languages, hourly/3-hour/daily forecasts, and has generous free-tier access.

Simple to integrate Supports global locations JSON RESTful endpoints Generous free tier

Great for dashboards, weather bots, agricultural planning, travel apps, or in our case — weather-based social messaging.
